kurt Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 I just did one of those wacko condos downtown; a mere $5.5 million to live 49 stories up in the sky. The view is kind of awesome; the pics don't do it justice.

I grew up on a farm, hunting & fishing; high school graduating class had 54 kids. Been to the top of 3 14,000 footers in Colorado. Wilderness camp as a hobby. It's all fascinating view; you country boys should open your minds to all that there is in the world. This country boy's mind gets blown that humans can even build this stuff.

charlieb Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 I'm blessed to visit Chicago every 3 or 4 years. My sister is in South Bend and an "architecture" review is a must do. It pales LA and NY. Just my opinion. There is a Holiday Inn on the north side with a massive seafood buffet. Vienna and the countyside in Hungary are my next favorite spots to site see.[:-bigeyes2]
DonTx Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 I can just see Brian's trip to Chi Town. He'll be wanting Kurt to take him to the top of those buildings so he can hawk loogies and drop pennies on passer bys below. [:-taped]
Brian G Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Might as well really go for it and take a whiz. By the time it reaches the street we'll be halfway back to the elevator. [:-dev3] Brian G.

Paul MacLean Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 By the time you get to the parking garage your commute is half over! 49 stories...geez!
